Bush   Source:(AP)   2008-11-24 Doctors transplant windpipe with stem cells LONDON - Doctors have given a woman a new windpipe with tissue grown from her own stem cells, eliminating the need for anti-rejection drugs. "This technique has great promise," said Dr. Eric Genden, who did a similar transplant in 2005 at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York. That operation used both donor and recipient tissue. Only a handful of windpipe, or trachea, transplants have ever been done.   Nations:U.K. Italy   Source:(AP)   2008-11-18 Obama reviews Bush orders on stem cells, drilling WASHINGTON - President-elect Obama's transition chief said Sunday the incoming administration is reviewing President Bush's executive orders on stem cell research, oil and gas drilling and other matters.   Nations:U.S.   People:Nancy Pelosi John McCain   Activities:Obama Admin.
